In this episode the G body gets Flaked-Out with some super chunky flake, sanded out, and the lowrider pattern design taped out. Ready for candy! Monte Carlo Metal Flake and Lowrider Patterns!
I love the fact that you involve your babies. My father raised me in the auto restoration business and specialized in upholstery since I was 9. Some things you cant learn in school. Respect.
Not just the imagination to come up with the patterns but also to think 5 steps ahead as far what color goes where. All the back masking n switching colors. Bravo sir. Mine would look like the lid blew off a paint shaker. 🎨 Thank you for taking the time to show us this process. Subbed.
Thanks David! I was actually working on the Monte Carlo today. SO CLOSE to wrapping up this paintjob with its final colour. Video coming soon, the light at the end of the tunnel is in view 😎
@@SlickWorks Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view!" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
That's awesome bro! Your tape lines are perfectly straight! Before I was a Ford technician I owned a paint company for years. Got like 20 something years under my belt with houses and cabinets. Stuff like that but never painted a car. I love that horn! Lol I want one for the elco!
Thanks man! Hahaha I got that horn when I was pulling a fender off a parts car. He didnt know what it was so we jumped it off my battery. I told him "Ill give you full asking price for the fender but you gotta give me that horn." 🤣
This tight bro maybe next time when transferring your patterns to the other side use transfer paper put the sticky side up when mapping out your patterns with a pen then just flip it over and stick it and cut and tape as you go 💯💯💯💯💯
Thanks man! honestly most of the tape i used on this car is cheap chinese amazon tape. Performed very well actually! 😂 Ive got some FBS, its alright but I like the cheapo chinese stuff better for some reason
my opinion is that would be a whole lot easier and a better move than flaking just certain areas like I did with this car. Full vehicle flake would have been SO much easier.
Yyyyyyyyep. took it to a local trans shop. Super honest guy. He replaced 2 seals and the speedometer cable aluminum housing. $180CAN!! He honestly could have charged me double that and I wouldnt have known any different lol
